lyrics

There’s a sunny old spot in the back of my mind
A longitude and latitude
A moment in time
The feeling of a memory and some days I find
I wanna crawl into the polaroid right beside us

I wanna go back to Montreal
Walking on the train tracks
Sleeping on your mattress
I wanna go back to where we all
Put on British accents
Finally went dancing
Didn’t know the future
Didn’t care for the past
Standing by the river for as long as it lasts
Now I’m finding out I didn’t know what we had
And I wanna go

I wanna go back to Montreal
Back to Montreal
Back to Montreal

The sequence of a history seems so out of place
When you’re standing in the present and you look in the face
Of a million little pieces always moving away
And you try your very hardest to keep up with the chase

Till every bit of stillness seems to feel like a waste
And every bit of silence becomes filtered with pace
Then one day you’re so dizzy that you look back amazed
You see the golden speckles we left floating behind us

I wanna go back to Montreal
Walking on the train tracks
Sleeping on your mattress
I wanna go back to where we all
Put on British accents
Finally went dancing
Didn’t know the future
Didn’t care for the past
Standing by the river for as long as it lasts
Now I’m finding out I didn’t know what we had
And I wanna go

I wanna go back to Montreal
Back to Montreal
Back to Montreal
Back to Montreal

Salut, salut
Heille, on sors-tu à soir
Nenon, come on lala
C’est la fin de semaine, c’est vendredi
Aweille
Ouiiiii
Ok, ok, ok, fake tu t’en viens chez nous, euh
On va s’habiller
On va se maquiller
Et pi, euh, après ça on va aller faire le party
Ok, j’t’attends
À tantôt
Bye!

Perdre le contrôle dans la danse
Prête à prendre toutes les chances

I wanna go back to Montreal
Walking on the train tracks, sleeping on your mattress
I wanna go back to where we all
Put on British accents, finally went dancing
Didn’t know the future
Didn’t care for the past
Standing by the river for as long as it lasts
Now I’m finding out I didn’t know what we had
And I wanna go
I wanna go back to Montreal
Back to Montreal
Back to Montreal
And I wanna go
